half the people that post in that pyf brony thread are ponypedos but "not those kind." actually this is true in p much every creepy fandom thread floating around. goons are quick to make fun of everyone in some creepy stupid fandom bs but they dont realize that they are the same as long as they associate themselves with and partake in the activity they are insulting

well once you become one you still have to believe there's somebody worse

i wonder if there's numbers on how many ogons made fun of animes/furries/bronies and after delving deep enough became one

i wonder how many android thread yosposters become 'droids themselves after mining iyg for badroid posts

I am going to take the statpedia ratings feature and apply it to be a scroll over feature on search results. If a new version is rated poorly, it will keep reverting back until it no longer exists within search for moderators to review.

Then if people take advantage of this feature, we will just have locked versions and special permissions to edit content.

People will also be able to make collaborative groups for things where they can grant permissions.

Obviously people need to be able to lock edits if they are using themselves as a source.

what's weird about the way us televison works in this context.

television in other countries is mostly a propagandized element of the government where, even if the stations are independently owned and operated, they're legally required to play content that shows the country in a favorable light

Jon-Paul Lussier Jr on December 13
Can also confirm non-receipt of backer rewards. I'd love to get the sticker and a handwritten Yehuda thank you some time in 2012, but that looks unlikely to happen. Can any other backer confirm that they've received their backer gifts?


Geoff Lanotte on December 21
I sent an email and though I never received a direct response, I did get an automated email requesting that I submit my address for backer rewards. I am assuming that it went out to all, but just in case it did not - that is what happened for me.
I still haven't received an update on the project though... is it vaporware? Has anyone heard? I have a mentee that I would like to get started and this would have been ideal.

This brings wealth to the team in both a good cause, as well as financially. Down the road, Statpedia can take similar advertising approaches as Google has done. It would require a keyword input box for advertisers, then when those keywords are searched, Statpedia can display approved ads in a nice way. As Statpedia evolves as an organization, further growth and innovation can provide additional
meaningful wealth to the team.
